Abstract
The present invention provides a pump device and a method of manufacturing a pump device. This pump device is provided with: a pump main body which is provided with hole portions in an abutting surface on the opposite side to a side on which a pump rotor is accommodated; a motor portion provided with a rotor attached to an outer circumference of a rotating shaft, a stator core which faces an outer periphery of the rotor and an end surface of which, in the axial direction of the rotating shaft, is in contact with the abutting surface, and coils attached to the stator core with the interposition of bobbins; and a resin molded portion which integrally retains the stator core and in which positioning pins that protrude from the end surface and are inserted into the hole portions are provided integrally.
Claims7
A pump device which suctions and discharges a fluid by driving of a pump rotor, comprising:
- a pump main body configured to accommodate the pump rotor and having at least one hole portion in an abutting surface on an opposite side to a side in which the pump rotor is accommodated;
- a motor portion including a rotor installed on an outer circumference of a rotating shaft, a stator core facing an outer circumference of the rotor and having an end surface of the stator core in an axial direction be in contact with the abutting surface, and a coil installed at the stator core through a bobbin;
- and
- a molded portion configured to integrally hold the stator core and integrally provided with at least one positioning pin protruding from the end surface and inserted into the corresponding hole portion,
- wherein a plurality of main pole teeth protruding toward an inner circumference side are provided at the stator core, and a coil winding body having a coil is installed at the main pole teeth,
- an insulating cover portion which covers the coil winding body protruding from the end surface is intermittently provided in the molded portion in a circumferential direction, and
- the positioning pin protrudes from between adjacent insulating cover portions, and a protruding height thereof is lower than a protruding height of the insulating cover portion from the end surface.
A method of manufacturing a pump device which suctions and discharges a fluid by driving of a pump rotor, the method comprising:
- installing a stator core on a wall surface of a movable mold of a mold wherein an end surface of the stator core is in contact with the wall surface;
- injecting a melted resin into a hollow portion formed between abutting portions in a mold closed state in which the movable mold abuts a fixed mold of the mold, to form a molded portion having a positioning pin protruding from the end surface of the stator;
- moving the movable mold in a mold opening state and taking out a stator module integrally formed with the stator core;
- and
- mounting the stator module to a pump main body by inserting the positioning pin into a hole portion provided in an abutting surface of the pump main body and keeping the end surface of the stator core in contact with the abutting surface.
